It isn't too long (only 280 pages, that's really not long!) and only $14. I think it's on sale on Amazon or something... It's a really interesting and worthwhile book on Epistemology and faith. I highly recommend it.
In theory we could do huge player numbers far over 500 players per server...  As such we will surely keep our promise to deliver you the 500 players per server.

We will probably go (far) over it, but that's for later.

I'll keep them both in mind, they both seem very interesting except i'm trying to keep it within a 10$ limit (i'm a cheap bum). If i can't find anything else then i will definitely do one or both.

If you want history, more specifically Russian history, I've been reading a lot of Orlando Figes right now and he's great

You're probably gonna want some supplementary material for The Republic (also read Plato's account of the trial of Socrates, "The Apology"). Same for Candide. Some editions of Candide come with full annotations, but a quick skimming of early 18th century events and politics would probably suffice.

I'd recommend Bertrand Russel's History of Western Philosophy for a fairly complete overview. Still reading that one myself.

Lastly, if you're going to read Dostoevsky I think you should also try Gogol. His short stories are amazing and also his unfortunately unfinished novel Dead Souls. Good shit altogether.

Killington, yours seems to be the most expensive i'm afraid. Primarily because of shipping and i don't know the conversion rate of canadian dollars as this seems to not account for USD.

Also again, i can't keep interested with a subject if it's more than 300 pages, so something like "History of Western Philosophy" sounds like it could be easily over 500.

Okay, i decided to cut "The Inferno," I'll probably just order it around christmas time when i have more money.

Anyways, this is my list and i'm quite content with it. It goes right up to the amount of money on my giftcard.

I don't see the Anti-Machiavel on that list. For shame.
Did you know that if you use 100% of your brain, you get godlike powers? true story.
Did you know that if you use 10% of received donations, you can release BCoF by now. true story

i actually already have Nietzsche, i haven't finished it yet. I also have some camus.

I don't see the Anti-Machiavel on that list. For shame.
I have read the price so i would be quite interested to read it, however that shit is not at all cheap. Cheapest one is $16.25
